I have upgraded to Joomla 2.5.17 Since then I cannot upload images ; exmaple : I have an image of 665kb and when I upload it , it tells me WARNFILETOOLARGE!! the max size allowed is 10 Mb so there should be no problem, What can I do? Thanks for your help!!
Hello Chantal, Thank you for your question. I found a post in the Official Joomla Forum, where they are discussing your exact issue: WARNFILETOOLARGE after update to 2.5.17. Also, I would also use a PHPinfo page to ensure your settings are changing. If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below. Thank you, John-Paul
